knockturnal smses doing their back-and-forthing..

Stumbled upon a few surviving messages that preceded the Arthurford days, should probably put this up on the other blog, but I'm feeling much too lazy! Here they are, in no particular order:

Why didn't the biscuit crumble when I dropped it?
Coz it was one hell of a tough cookie!!

What would you get if you crossed a beet, a gangster and a horse?
Red Riding Hood!

When we were doing the Romans:
What would you call a musically inclined Roman actor?
Robert de Nero!
And yes, he used to play the fiddle!!

What would you call a Bollywood actor in Italy?
Roman Irani!

What would you call an Italian sailor?
A row-man!

What would you call an italian flea?
A Roman-tic!
If the Italian flea acted smart, his girlfriend would properly tick him off!

Prefect: Hahaha!! Awesome! Looks like our Roman saga isn't over yet!!
Dent: Of course it isn't over senorita! You know as well as I do that rome was not built in a day!

Doesn't petrificus totallus sound like a roman prefect?

Dent: In the old days, the romans used to grab their ladies... they lived by the
laws of Caeser!!
Prefect: They really carpe'd everything eh? They veni vidi vici'd the ladies hey?
Dent: Heh heh, forgive my choice of words, but they were more likely to have vidi vici veni'd them :-(.

Why is an elephant so wrinkled?
Just you try and iron one!

An elephant really needs to be ironed.. it's a problem.. Ivory and vory
about it!

Prefect: Well, it IS a gargantuan and difficult tusk, vell vorth vorrying about!
Dent: I, with thy graceful permission, add one adjective. It is also a mammoth tusk!

And then there were the Potter puns, the ones that didn't make it to the other blog:
What did the daily phophet say when bathilda bagshot got killed?
We're hag-rid!

Harry married the woman of his dreams. To him, she was genie weasley.
Nymphadora didn't want to be known by that name, hence at the end of the book,
she went Tinkerty Tonk!
You're on fire! You've got a bill-a-trix up your sleeve!

How did bill propose to fleur?
He just popped the usual ques- Veela marry me? :)

Why did dumbledore give the deluminator specifically to Ron Weasley?
Coz he knew he was the one who would ron away.

Rita Skeeter got her awesome anumagus abilities from her mom - she was a Ma Skeeter!
Mind you, a Ma Skeeter that bites, as opposed to the french one that goes "One for all and all
for one!" :)

Once ron and his wife were robbed. She lost all hermione!
Hehe that was really cute too! They were goblin all hermione, so sad for them na! In one fell stroke, all their silver came to Knut.

Bertie Bott a bit of butter.....
But it turned out to be a pumpkin pasty!

Would he be from Flourish and Botts?
Heh probably.. he bott it there, but in his flourri.. he picked up the wrong package!

Fred put George innto flour.
He was very flourish!

By George!! Percy put his older brother into cocoa, he made Charlie Brown.

Regulus put his brother down the chimney. He became sirius lee black :)
On second thoughts, after the chimney treatment, he could have even become the dark lord!!
And thus the riddle of how he changed his name to the dark lord is finally solved! :)

If Mrs Weasley was into metal, would she be called mollybdenum?

-Goodness! You deserve the O-scar for the best puns in foreign category :)

Yes, they'd either think you're mad, or you got a cold. Accio!!
Indeed.. that's what I meant! The sneeze :)) Speaking of which, Nadal's knees are very different from
Nadal's sneeze, no?

One of the blacks left the dark lord's services. He was irregulus :)
Grin grin! And he was condemned to recite irregular verbs in french for the rest of his life!


Did Charles Babbage ever manage to create a chip of the old block?

How did the flintstones make ends meet?
The whole family chipped in!
